Child Safe Tourism: The Tourist Perspective

As one of the world’s largest industries, tourism has significant economic impacts on the South-East Asian region. This report summarises findings from a recent online survey conducted with over 300 international travellers to Cambodia, Lao PDR, Thailand and Vietnam. The survey was conducted to better grasp the sorts of interactions tourists have with children in these countries and to gauge their perceptions of these interactions and of child safe tourism in general.
